Giblin and Doctorow's book is clearly written, unabashedly partisan, and convincingly argued. A great overview of the state of the field in 2022, the book features lucid prose, a wicked sense of humor, and a profoundly moral call for an economy which values creators and communities over corporations. That said, you have to come to the volume hungry for details: No amount of clear writing will make the political economy of the creative industries interesting unless you care about the topic. That said, if you really want to understand the problem -- and be part of the solution -- there's no better place to start than this volume.
